Immobilization of escherichia coli outer membrane protein on magnetic nanoparticles for application in the separation of water-in-oil emulsions

Biosurfactants are biomolecules capable of altering interfacial tension of emulsions. Since they are produced by different microorganisms and are biodegradable their use in water-in-oil separation is being studied. In this work, Escherichia coli outer membrane protein, OmpN, was immobilized on magne...
